Stitchcraft Tearaway Embroidery Backing provides temporary support beneath fabric during machine embroidery. It helps stabilize the garment while stitching, reducing unwanted movement, puckering, and design distortion.
After embroidery is complete, the excess backing tears away from the finished design for a cleaner interior appearance.
